We were so excited to stay at this property, but were disappointed in the room and so many hidden fees. The bedding was ripped and had holes in it and walls had lots of scuff marks. Seemed very worn for the cost we paid. Beware that reservations are required to access pool area. Be sure to read the fine print as a minimum food/beverage order of $100+ is required to access pool through the White Limousine. Hotel shows images of pool, but it is apparently not part of the hotel. Valet parking was listed online for $55, but they charged us $65 + hidden fees for our SUV which ended up being nearly $76 just for parking. Will not stay at property again or recommend.

We were on a girls' trip in Nashville to see "Dolly: A True Original Musical," of course, we needed to stay at a hotel that featured Dolly Parton! We brought our Dolly PJs and even went to the lobby in them, where we had fun pictures made by other people staying there. Coldplay was also playing that night, so the hotel was full of fun people going to both events! It was a great experience! I would definitely recommend staying here!
We had a darlin' room for our girls' trip! This is the ideal place for country music fans! The vibe was perfect for us!
The perfect place to stay when exploring Nashville! It couldn't have been better!
We weren't moving in, but is it really a girls' trip if you don't overpack? We still had plenty of space in our room.
  On our way to the Dolly Parton musical at The Fisher Center for the Performing Arts after eating at Urban Grub. Returned to our comfy room at the Graduate afterwards to slip into our Dolly PJs for a fun recap of our day.
